Cathay Pacific
is adding a fourth weekly flight to Perth, Australia, as part of the
airline's plan to add more flights and destinations through the year as its fleet expands.
The new service, to start 2 April 2005, will bring to 52 the number of direct flights the airline operates to six cities in Australia each week.
The Saturday evening departure from Hong Kong will be the airline’s first weekend service to Perth. The return flight’s Sunday
evening arrival in Hong Kong allows travellers to make the most of the approaching working week.
The service will be operated with a two-class Airbus 330-300.
Cathay Pacific will acquire nine aircraft in 2005 and six more are due
to arrive by 2007.
Cathay Pacific Airways Director Sales and Marketing James Barrington said: “Australia is a key market and the addition of a fourth weekly service to Perth will provide
greater travel convenience to our passengers and underline Hong Kong’s strengthen as a global hub and gateway to the Chinese Mainland.”
